No Title...

I can't think of one to express how this photo makes me feel.
It feels soothing and peaceful.

Especially after the horrors of yesterday!

These colors are so much my mom.

Which makes sense since she bought them to knit something for herself then changed her mind about it...

As you can see I've just barely started the second section of the shawl. I can't wait to add the third color, the color I refer to as 'ninja' because its the same color as my favorite yard squirrel who showed up all stealthy like last fall.

Who names a squirrel ninja?

Me.

He acts very ninja-like. I'll try and grab a pic of him doing something ninja-ie. he got pretty plump over the winter, someone must have put out her Christmas nuts him...

Wow. That's a road I didn't intend to go down...

Anyway,
Happy Wednesday!

p.s.
I'm wearing my Multnomah today and its lovely!

So you finally got to wear your Multnomah? That is super.
Why is it that it is so hard not to be nice to the little creatures. My husband had a slightly malnourished, handicapped squirrel he fed out the window of his upstairs office. Eventually it made the tiny hole in the screen bigger and came through to sit on the desk and be fed. Whose fault was it oh the squirrel's because he made the hole bigger.
I have a silly question for you, some time ago your mom went to a thrift store and found at least a suitcase full of yarn, whatever happened to it? I have been curious ever since you posted about it. Just being nosey.

I have made some stuff from it.
Bump's old Man cardigan was knit with the tweedy cashmere as were his slippers.
I'm pretty much hoarding it though :)
i've done some hats, gloves, cowls, and such for myself and some friends. most of the thrift store find was cashmere, merino, silk...

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...
